The spring breeze is still the same, focusing on the willows of the Sui embankment. Rub the goose yellow desire, when the weather is clear.

The feast of the dynasty, the happy life of the night and night is as short as the spring night, just as beautiful things are always rare and long-lasting, but they can be prosperous for a time, but they cannot be stayed. Life! After all, it has to sink back to reality.

On the evening of the fifteenth day of the first month of the leap month, Zhang Yue, who was drunk and gentle and didn't know where to return, finally got the news that Guo Rong, the Marquis of Taiyuan County, had returned to Beijing. Zhang Yue sent Zhang Zhixing to the front of the palace, and asked He Jiyun, the direct governor of the inner hall, to inquire, and the marquis of the county lived in the palace, and it was possible to return to the house tomorrow.

But it doesn't matter, the sticker has already been handed to the county marquis's mansion, and the next morning Zhang Yue went to ask to see him, and the gatekeeper was a soldier of the Zhenning Army in Shanzhou, and immediately went in to report. After a while, a civil official wearing a black veil and a green robe came out to greet him.

"You are Zhang Yue and Zhang Yuanzhen who speared the Liao general Gao Mohan?" The civil official figure, square face and slight beard, his eyes were sharp and looked at Zhang Yue for a long time, and asked with a slight arch.

"I'm ashamed! It's Zhang! I wonder if the marquis has ever returned home? The civil official was over forty years old, and his eyes were very rude with thorns, Zhang Yue was slightly displeased in his heart, and returned the salute.

"The county marquis has just returned to the house, and he is resting, Wang Wenbo of a certain family, the secretary of the Zhenning Military Festival, if you have nothing urgent, I can wait with you for a while." The civil servant introduced himself.

Wang Wenbo? This name is very familiar, Zhang Yue couldn't remember where he had seen or heard it for a while, so he asked a little embarrassedly: "Dare to ask...... Wen Boke ...... Mr. Table Words? What is that daimyo? ”

"Wang Pu!" The civil official looked at him in surprise, and he didn't know if he was angry, so he flicked the sleeves of his robe and turned around and walked towards the mansion.

This is Wang Pu, who later went to Zhou Shizong Guo Rong on "Pingbian Ce", and the name is really thunderous! Zhang Yue hurriedly followed, smiling flatteringly, wanting to say something, but he didn't know where to start, but when he thought that he was here to see the Marquis of Taiyuan, he smiled bitterly and shut up, and followed all the way into the atrium lobby to sit and wait.

In the third year of Qianyou, the king's servant was promoted to Shidi, worshiped the secretary Lang, saw that the political situation was chaotic, and had a premonition that something big was going to happen, so he ran home for refuge. Later, Guo Wei led his troops into Tokyo to determine the overall situation, and Wang Pu defected to Guo Rong, who was then the envoy of the Tianxiong Ya Inner Army, and was finally reused.

"With Gao Mohan's head as the rank of promotion, and promoted to the capital in half a year, General Zhang can be said to be on a steady rise!" Wang Pu led Zhang Yue into his seat, sat down on the side and spoke.

I am on the rise, but how can I compare to the gold content of your secretary of Zhenning Jiedu? You are much more powerful than me in holding gold thighs, your eyes are spicy and poisonous, and you also sarcastically mock me for being opportunistic...... Zhang Yue scolded in his heart, but replied with a smile: "Where is it...... It's a blessing to see Mr. Wang today! ”

"Really? You know me? Wang Pu's eyes showed surprise.

"Huh...... I've heard of it! Mr. Wang's insight into the opportunity and his ability to judge the situation will be greatly admired! Zhang Yue meant something, and said in a very sincere tone.

"Hmph...... Little things are enough! Wang Pu snorted unceremoniously and got up to leave.

Zhang Yue sat in the hall and waited boredly for nearly a moment, and finally heard someone talking outside, a sound of footsteps from far and near, and quickly stood up, and saw a middle-aged man in a purple robe coming in first, Wang Pu took a step behind and followed behind.

"The last general's former secretary of the palace has made Zhang Yue, meet the Marquis of Taiyuan County!" Zhang Yue seems to be dressed in clothes, and secretly guesses that this person should be Guo Rong.

"Excuse me! Have a seat! Guo Rong looked at Zhang Yue curiously, smiled, waved his hand, and went to the front of the main hall screen to sit down.

"The last general has thanked the marquis!" Zhang Yue also peeked at it, Guo Rong's posture was a little fat, his face was slightly fat, his complexion was slightly dark, his chin and upper lip had a short beard, he smiled slightly, and his tone was kind, very high-ranking people who were not angry and self-imposing, but they were not stiff and there was no sense of oppression.

"Yesterday, when I returned to Beijing, I entered the palace to meet my father, and I heard him talk about Gyeongju and Yeonju, and by the way, you will inspect the two states, Gyeongju has several large departments, often plundering business travel, and has ordered Ningzhou to assassinate Zhang Jianwu and Gyeongju Guo Yanqin to lead the troops to suppress. Of course, this is to give an edict to appease first, if you don't obey the order and then send troops, you can go to the local area to learn more about the truth.

And Yanzhou Zhangwu Army Jie Du Gao Yunquan is old and sick, and has always wanted to use his son Yanzhou Yanei Gao Shaoji to take over the affairs of the military state, this is an old practice in the Tang Dynasty, but it must not be opened again, so you can lead the three commanders to take office to prevent him from colluding with Xia Sui and Li Yiyin to make trouble, of course, the affairs of Gyeongju should also be watched. Also, if you can win the Yanzhou salt affairs under the rule of Shuo Fangjun, if you can win it better, if you can't take it, you can't let the green salt run wild, and the price of salt must also be suppressed! Got it? Guo Rong explained carefully.

"The last general understands, but there are only three commanders in the two states, and the troops are afraid that it is not enough, and there are six commanders under the command of the last general, can you take them all?" Zhang Yue thought for a while and asked tentatively.

"What does Wenber think?" Guo Rong smiled slightly, but turned his head to look at Wang Pu.

"The Guanbei Prefectures are remote and poor, there are too many troops, not only is it not easy to supply, but also easy to be suspicious and jealous of the towns, the consumption of grain from other places is too large, the gains outweigh the losses, whether it can be transported is also a problem, if the chapter is not afraid of trouble, it is naturally possible." Wang Pu said bluntly indifferently.

"So you can only bring elite soldiers, then four commanders!" Zhang Yue thought about it and immediately made a decision.

This can be notified to Bian Ji first, and let him lead the fleet to transport a batch of grain to Guanzhong by waterway of the Yellow River, so that when he settles down in the locality, he can grasp the affairs of the two states as soon as possible.

"You watch the errand you receive! I heard that you made up last year on the Tangzhou gold mine, issued gold coins to alleviate the lack of copper coins among the people, I read this chapter, it is indeed very insightful, and a batch has been minted, which will be issued soon, and the father will reward some down, and you will take ten catties back later! ”

"Thank you, Marquis!" Zhang Yue opened his mouth, wanting to say that I didn't use up the dog's head gold I got last time, but it would be too faceless to give people a reward, and it would be too much gold to say.

"You are not in a hurry on this errand, it is not too late to go back after lunch in my house, and by the way, you can learn more about the situation in the two states of Yanqing from Wenbo. There is also the matter of the Wuping army in Tanzhou, I heard that it is now facing the army of the Guangzhou thief Liu, you should know a lot of inside information, right? ”

Zhang Yue nodded, I only heard about this, but the previous war situation, Guo Rong looked very interested, and then recounted in detail, from last year's south to Yuezhou to the north, by the way, the DPRK's views on how the states under the rule of Wu Pingjun should be governed.

However, Zhang Yue had reservations about what he said, after all, he was only a forbidden army envoy, and he still understood the truth that if he said too much, he would lose. No matter how big or small, Guo Rong asked one by one, Zhang Yue answered carefully, and the topic quickly shifted to the question of where to attack first with troops in the south.

"When the east road takes Huai and Si, the middle road besieges Shou and Guang, and the west takes Qi, Huang and Hubei prefectures, as long as you make sufficient preparations, the land of Jiangbei can go down in one drum." When it comes to military affairs, Zhang Yue is interested, and he is a little bit talkative.

"Tell me, what should you prepare?" Wang Pu was also interested, and asked with a smile.

"That's a lot of ......" Zhang Yue comprehensively said some of his own opinions, which made Wang Pu praise again and again.

The three of them chatted until noon, Zhang Yue had lunch in Guo Rong's mansion, of course, there are too many dining rules in the nobleman's mansion, and this is the future emperor, Zhang Yue is very restrained, carefully accompanied, received a small box of rewarded gold coins in the afternoon, and hurried home by carriage.
